A Walk around Shibamata and Taishakuten (Part 2) / 柴又と帝釈天の散歩 （パート２）

Continuing our walk around Shibamata. We decided to skip going to the Tora-san as we've been there before and Mikako had no desire to check out the yagari no watashi (Edo style river crossing in a boat). But we were looking forward to lunch.

柴又と帝釈天の探索の続き。今回は虎さん記念館を断念。前は行った事あるし、実香子は矢切の渡しは興味もなっかたし、次はやっぱり昼食ですね！

And now for lunch. We went to the same soba place as last time - Soba Dokoro [Yabu chu]. Today we both ordered the same dish - the Sakura Set. This includes an assortment of tempura, hand-made soba, fish, yaki-onigiri, mountain vegetables, konnyaku with miso, and dessert. I ate the dessert first (uh-oh, I'm becoming like my father!) Dessert was soba yokan.
